I don&#39;t have more than the base (because it&#39;s a sequel) and a general direction for this year&#39;s Nano. I enjoy the discovery process too much to want to limit it. I&#39;m that way with software development and game design too though. I have to get something on the screen or in front of me physically and play with it as soon as possible, and then I can make changes to refine it. I can&#39;t design the whole thing first and then make it all in one go. Make a little piece, get it working, play with it, make some changes or make the next chunk, etc, etc.Brian Cablehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12766248970283895654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-88662691204272199.post-29491631975290321532016-10-19T13:18:58.442-07:002016-10-19T13:18:58.442-07:00You could argue that&#39;s a plot. *shrugs* Tradit...You could argue that&#39;s a plot. *shrugs* Traditional pantsers have done no prep work, where are you have done a lot &gt;.&lt;Gwen Tolioshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12106399041059595196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-88662691204272199.post-54517493780228447352016-10-19T03:30:04.957-07:002016-10-19T03:30:04.957-07:00I really SHOULD turn into a plotter.

If I&#39;d planned it, I wouldn&#39;t be wasting so much time. Although, I guess I could just say that the fully complete 57k novel is just the outline for the novel that will emerge from it? Or is that pushing the concept a little too far?Annalisa Crawfordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14943610814274794998noreply@blogger.com
